Product Description

This 1/87th HO Scale frame is a Tridem, aka Tri-Drive, or Triaxle type suited to match up to most frames, but may require additional sanding/filling to be a perfect fit. The suspension is artistically based to represent the Peterbilt Air Leaf design. The fifth wheel will pivot, but may take a small amount of fine tune sanding for the pins to fit and move nicely. The front 'splice' plates in between the frame rails on the front should also slip into the die cast frame, allowing for a glue joint. The axle holes are designed oval shape, so the three axles should level out once the rig is completed. The design has passed all the checks in three different software programs I use, so I’m confident it will print without issues in the Frosted Ultra Detail material, which is what you’d want to order it in to ensure the details are as crisp as possible.
